Missing constable case: Cops sent to Haryana, Delhi return; no leads

The teams were sent to check details of unclaimed bodies and see if any of them matched Reeta.

The two teams sent by the Chandigarh Police to Haryana and Delhi in search of constable Reeta, who has been missing since June 8, have returned empty-handed.

The teams were sent to check details of unclaimed bodies and see if any of them matched Reeta. They were also asked to look for information about Reeta.

The police is now scrutinising the ‘dump data’ of all mobile towers where Reeta’s phone and Constable Ravinder’s phone were traced. Reeta was last seen with Ravinder in Chandigarh. Also, Ravinder’s phone was reportedly in Karnal when Reeta’s phone was last active there in the morning of June 9.

Ravinder was questioned by the police for three days. He denied he knew anything about Reeta’s disappearance.

“We have probed all possible angles and it is becoming difficult with each passing day. But we are trying our best”, said SHO of Sector 17 police station Inspector Dilsher Singh Chandel.

Reeta was last seen at the bus stand of her hometown Chuklana in Panipat district on June 8 evening when her brother saw her off for Chandigarh. However, Reeta’s phone was actually traced to Panipat Railway Station and from there to Karnal.

Also, the movement of Ravinder’s phone was traced from Chandigarh to Karnal at the same time, sources said. Constable Reeta was posted in the control room, while Constable Ravinder is posted in the Sector 19 police station.
